Russell Simmons returns from African trip

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I just got back from Russell Simmons’ press conference for his fact-finding mission to Africa (Mozambique, Botswana, South Africa). All I can say is Jim Jones?!!! WTF does he have to do with anything. More of my reaction later. In the mean time read up on the blood diamond controversy and hear what LA Weekly’s Nikki Finke has to say about the trip.

If you like what you read, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or my email alerts. Thanks for visiting!
